Card For a Friends Mom


I told a friend I would send her mom a card...She was recently injured and needed some surgery, and a little pick me up.
I had this card base around from a previous stamping attempt and hadn't given uptrying to make it work. You'll have to let me know what you think. I am still not too sure of it myself.
The sentiment is from SU"Kind Thoughts", I punched a mask from Post it note and then stmaped the SU "Pocket Silhouette" image on the Very Vanilla base in Really Rust and Summer Sun, and Timber Brown StazOn. I am really starting to wish I had bought the ink pads for the in colors but I am very happy there are some alternative colors that come very close.
The base of the card was embossed inthe Cuttlebug using "Floral Screen" and Timber Brown StazOn, was sponged on and then lightened with bleach in a few places sponging also...Previeously I was planning on using this with a Bleached image card. I used a circle Stencil made by punching a 1 3/8" cirlce in card stock nd then sponged circels using my Dusty Durango and Crushed Curry Reinkers. I used soft suede to mat the Cardstock panels, the "just My Type" border set was used to put dots on the Crushed Curry 1" strip. The Martha Stewart punch was used to add the "Lattice Arch" to the mat trim. I used my Cricut George and Basic Shapes Cart to cut the Circle and Shadow at 2-1/2 " and then embossed the Dusty Durango piece withthe "Friends Forever" embossing folder. The Card layout came from SCS SC240.
Until Later ...Happy Stamping!
